A Igreja: Vida e Natureza - Fábio Falcão

This was the first message of our retreat in Jacarepaguá, based on Ephesians 1:1, where Paul shows the life and nature of the church in Ephesus - in light of this text we saw the life of the church as a Body (Mt 16:13-18). We also looked at the local church (Mt 18:20) where we are called to live the practical life of the church with all who love His Word. We saw that the local church is not a large church, but rather a group of Christians who live the Christian life simply - Paul lived, wrote and ministered to this small church; the apostle John also ended his ministry to the seven churches of Revelation by calling a remnant in the churches to repentance.
